28th January 2022 – 3k on the Green return
I plan to resume 3k on the Green, live, at Glasgow Green on Friday 28th January, 12.30pm. Format will be as before but I may be looking for a few volunteers to help at the event registration and timekeeping. Anyway, a date for the diary for now.
Virtual 3k – Feb 2021
Thanks to everyone who took part in the first Virtual “3k on the Green”. Hope you all enjoyed it and has set a 3k benchmark for this year and pushed you into racing mode for the first time in a while – it did for me. I guess it’s really just a Virtual 3k since […]
November 2018 – 3k on the Green
It was a miserable day and our expectations were for a relatively low sub 100 turnout. However a remarkable 127 runners turned up and completed the race and raised £314 for Social Bite, a homeless charity.

Thanks again to all 87 3k runners today, the day before the National Cross Country for many. After last months pretty wild day it was a perfect running day today. The yellow theme (sorry I was late advising of this) was based on the fact that my employer, Clydesdale Bank, rather than just matching all […]
November 3k on the Green
For the first time in my memory we had miserable weather for the 3k on the Green. I’d been following the weather forecast for much of this week and it proved to be pretty accurate, cold and wet from registration through to the finish. So I was truly surprised to see so many at registration, […]
July Summary
I’d received quite a few new entries in the days running up to July’s 3k on the Green so after breaking our record of 88 runners in June I was expecting that to be broken again with around 100 entrants. The swarm of 139 runners that descended on Glasgow Green as we approached 12.30 was […]
Race Report July 2015
Shettleston on top The clouds and chilly air apparently did not put off any runners this month as we enjoyed a record turnout for 3K on the Green, with over 140 competing in total. Fittingly, this coincided with another first for the event whereby all race finishers were rewarded for their endeavours with a free […]
